Castilleja de la Cuesta, my town.

Castilleja de la Cuesta.

Castilleja de la Cuesta is a town near Seville and it's the place where I have been living all my life. I'm going to tell you some interesting things about this town.

Castilleja is not a place to visit but a lot of people lives there and it is a very big town. Castilleja has very good restaurants and have two brotherhoods: "La Calle Real" and "La Plaza". 

Some of the interesting things in Castilleja are: 

The easter week:

For me It is the most important week in all the year. 

The holy thursday is the day that "La Calle Real" do the procession and this is the crist.

I'm from the other brotherhood "La Plaza" and I like a lot. I go out with the procession but the two years that I'm trying to go out I didn't do it because it did bad weather and we couldn't go out. The next pictures are of the Virgin "La Soledad" and the crist "Nuestro Padre Jesús de los Remedios".

Tis is me with my sister the last year with the dress of penitent.

There are other things that are very interesting in Castilleja like the School "Las Irlandesas" where all my family studied inluding my mother. It is an eclesiastic school and it is very old and very nice.

Nowadys I live in a small village in Camas, the town next to Castilleja, but I like Castilleja a lot and I consider that I am from this town. One of the best advantages is that all my mother's family live in Castilleja and when I want to see them I just need to take the bus.

For me the better restaurant in Castilleja is "The Calamocha" because it has very good food and it is fantastic.

Well, and this is the end, I tell you everything about Castilleja, my town.

What's in the jar?

The last four weeks we were cooperating with a charity and raising money to the poor people.

First we divided the class in groups amd in my group we were three: Lucía, Iván and me. Our task were looking for information about diseases and we chose a charity called "clowns without borders". I proposed this charity because I think the most important thing nowadays is to have fun and to laugh.

Then, we proposed differrent ideas to raise money, our idea was a fancy dress party but there were a better idea that was to guess the number of sweets a jar contained.

We bough sweets and we fill a jar and two people counted the number of sweets and the people who said the correct number will win the candies.

At first I was amazed because I liked  lot the idea and I wanted to start doing things and helping. The next days the teacher asked us what we wanted to do and everybody had a mission.

The first day we send messages by whatsapp and twitter and the people were informed about the activity and everbody started asking about the activity.

The second day we sticked posters in the corridors and in the classes.

The 10th we were at the center of the school and we gave numbers to everybody who wanted to bet. A lot of people payed and the teachers too. It was funny for me because the teachers said very stranges numbers and they didn't were near to the correct one.
The next week we were in the other school and the people payed too.
Then the last friday we discovered who was the winner and was Paula Ruíz.

I was to happy because she gave me some sweets.

It was a very gratefull experience and I hope I will repeat some day. Thank you for reading.

My greatest ability.

My greatest ability.

One of my best abilities is playing table tennis. I really enjoy it.

I know that I'm good playing ping-pong because I have played since I was 7 years old. Few years ago I started playing at hotels and winning competitions. Now I'm better because my father bought me a ping-pong table for my saint's day and I practise some days.

I'm very interested in that sport and if I want I can play and practise it for hours.
The truth is that when I play it I feel very good. Like if I were in the outerspace.

My father is very good table tennis player but I'm better and I can win him if I want. My friends aren't very good playing so when I play against them I always win but the important thing is that we laugh a lot and we have fun.
María, is my twin and she doesn't like to play with me because I always win her and she become angry, so the majority of the times I have to play alone.

I have few friends who know how to play ping-pong but I thing it is an interesting sport.

I'm going to practise more because I want to be better. Ping-pong makes me forget about my problems.

The best day of Christmas holidays.

I dindn't write before because I wanted to wait until today. The holidays have been very good but for me the bests days were the 5th and the 6th . I was very nervous because I wanted to know what the three wise men brought me.

 I'm going to tell you what I did:

 The 5th  Ana, my little cousin Marta who is 8 years old and me went to "Castilleja de la Cuesta" to see the procession of the Three Wise Men, we had a good time and we laughed a lot.

 The 6th I got up early and I called my father and my sister because they were sleeping. First my sister shouted at me but then she got up and we went to see what the three wise men bought us. My mother decided to make us a joke so she involved me the old computer the one wich didn't work so I was very angry but then she gave me another present wich was a new computer!! It was fantastic. 

 My grandmother gave me 150 euros my other grandmother gave me 25 euros, my aunt gave me 40 euros, my aunt María José gave me a t-shirt and my uncle gave me a boots. Ana gave me a present as well it was a blue "NIKE" jacket and I like a lot.

After that at half past two all my family and Ana went to eat to a restaurant and It was very funny because my aunt is very funny and she told us funny and interesting things. Then we went to a coffe to drink something and Then I went with Ana to the street.

This is a picture of my family leaving the restaurant.
